Maggie's younger but bigger cousin

Like mine but beefier and tape inputs, which mine lacks :-(

Seller says the needle sets down far into the record. Finicky, these machines are.

Very nice, are you going for it? The thrift store I picked up all those mixers today in the other thread, had a small Admiral model, not anywheres near as nice but nice all the same. Unfortunately they are auctioning it off which they do with some of their items

Jason-- isn't there an adjustment screw under the back end of the tone arm to tweak how far the arm goes 'into' the record? I seem to recall messing with it on our Magnavox when I was a kid.

Yes, there is. I'm going to try to find a service manual so I can know which screw it is. I think it's the one right under it on the side, but I really don't want to go turning screws and not knowing what they do :-(

Nahh, not gonna go for it, I have one already and having a tape input isn't too important to me. I'm gonna get a modern home theater system to play my mp3's/cd's/etc. The Maggie's going in the laundry room for wash-in music.
